which product

[bird4u]

If computer is slow when going through the startup phase, which of your products is best to take care of this? Shutdown and restart is SO slow but the internet portion is fine.

Sure wish someone would post an answer to 'birds' question because we, too, have that problem on one of our laptops.

There can be multiple reasons for slow startup and shutdown. If you have already scanned for malware, then programs running in the background is the next place to look.

I apologize if I am not to "barge" into someone else's thread. But I was searching the forums for anything having to do with WinPatrol PLUS. I have this software along with others that PC Pitstop sells. They all work great & have helped me improve my computer's performance. But I am not sure what to do in WinPatrol PLUS. I don't know what to disable and what not to (I get the error on the scan that tells me I should use this). With the other software, it knows what to do. But I am seriously computer illiterate & have no clue what to do & might even be jacking some stuff up.

 

Any advice?

 

Thank you so much.

 

PS. The reason I ask is because something I am doing is calling my Flash Player to not work. I will get that message in the scan saying it can't test bandwith cause I need newer than Flash 6. I have Flash 9. I usually have to end up uninstalling & the re-installing which works but I wouldn't think that's normal.

It is fairly common for the Flash player to break frequently. Mine breaks at least once a week.
